Published in 2024 at "Sustainability"

DOI: 10.3390/su16125068

Abstract: The combined contributions to mountain freeway safety of pavement performance, weather conditions, and traffic condition indicators have not been thoroughly investigated due to the complexity of their interactions and temporal instability. A cross-sectional analysis using… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Engineering Journal"

DOI: 10.62913/engj.v61i3.1328

Abstract: Lateral torsional buckling (LTB) is of concern in long-span flexural members, particularly in the negative flexure regions of continuous-span, steel I-shaped members and during construction. While the elastic critical LTB capacity of a simply supported… read more here.
